On this topic, I can't even guess how many hours I've spent watching Watakid and some others just totally loving wreck chillax survival (watching because I'm always dead within a few minutes). For anyone who doesn't already know, it's a wad with ludicrous numbers of high-danger enemies that involves exploiting weaknesses and abusing infighting to complete levels. It's really magical what some people can do in this game. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ncQf4CClZnk

Given that the Warhammer 40K engine and GZDoom have pretty much nothing in common except for being hardware accelerated, the culprit here is faulty hardware. Try to see if updated drivers can solve the issue; otherwise play Doom with a software renderer. (And for WH40K, there is no alternative.)

Dominic White posted:Because Timidity is a pain in the rear end, I just decided to upload a quick Fluidsynth + Soundfont pack for ZDoom. A one-step solution to much nicer sounding MIDI music. This doesn't quite work for me. I've downloaded this file twice now and both times I tried opening it with WinRAR only to get an empty folder. I decided to try and use 7zip itself instead, and while that let me see the files inside the .7z, they're all named "Doom Fluidsynth" and none of them have file extensions that tell me what they are.

Speaking of Fluidsynth, the old version has memory leaks. There's a new DLL now.catlord posted:Don't forget that Revenants will also shoot you in the face even when you're right up next to them hoping they'll try to punch instead. They are astoundingly unpredictable, I find. They'll only shoot in close range after having been hurt. You inflict them pain, they retaliate once with a missile, regardless of range. Then they're back to trying to slap you. Very predictable, actually. Also, two rockets or two point-blank SSG discharge, and they're out. If they accidentally survive such punishment, you can switch to the fist or chainsaw, because they really won't have much hit points left.

I'm having issues with Chocolate Doom. Doom 2 crashes during the demo, which the wiki says is because the WAD isn't patched to 1.9, but I don't know which version of the WAD I have. It's the one off of Steam. The other problem is the game sometimes crashes when I beat a level, which might also be because my WAD isn't the right version. edit: Now it just flat out won't let me play and crashes every time I try to start a game.

Hopefully this is the correct thread for it, but I've been playing the October build of Wrack, and it's really coming along nicely. There haven't been many major changes, but all the little ones are adding up. The graphics engine is fleshing out nicely, the movement feels a bit more smooth, especially the jumping, and there are some good ease of use tweaks like HP totals being shown numerically for the bosses. It's a great throwback FPS.

It's a great throwback FPS. I haven't tried it in a while. My main complaint would be that the areas are kind of uninspired so far. Hopefully Carnevil starts coming into his own once he really gets into the map making. Also, the editor is... kind of wack. It seemed like an interesting idea (I understand that he's trying to allow for interesting geometry while keeping the simplicity of sectors), but individually placing the faces of your geometry is a complete productivity killer.

Does anyone know if there's still a way to directly contact iD Software? Last time I tried I could only find a way to contact Zenimax, but somehow I don't think they would care in the slightest about the inquiry I'm interested in making. Back in the day they had an e-mail if I remember right, but I can't find anything on it anywhere.

I'm too busy trying to figure out Zandorum at the moment to see for myself, though.

Don't praise it because there are some goons that will get mad at you for that.Seriously now, 0.17 is a step forward now that Tony's voices are better implemented. I'm getting used to his taunts and not using Danny Glover's one at the moment. I was one of these that didn't like the new zombie sounds and this version is overall great for me. What I don't really get is the shotgun zooming but hey, I can just ignore it, but I can't ignore the flying kick, FEAR stlye breaking zombie's jaws all day

That's a pretty daft thing to say when almost all the changes from V16 to V17 were reining things back and polishing up what there was until the majority of the community seemed happy with it. On the ModDB page, there's even a collated bundle of all the optional feature enabler/disabler tweaks just in case there's some elements you're not happy with. Not sure who's being pissy here, but it doesn't seem to be the guy making the mod. Dominic White fucked around with this message at 14:05 on Nov 2, 2012 |

Yeah he's even caring about Danny Glover's taunt in a separate file (a thing already done ITT). You get the base Brutal Doom wich is great and anything that had some divided opinions is packed apart, hell you can even enable no reloads, no helmet effects (blood/bullet holes on your face). What he can think or feel about that is kinda irrelevant when he's giving everything to the community so everyone can be happy with their own brutal doom experience.

0.17 is a definite return to form, don't get me wrong. Maybe I'm misinterpreting the note. Honestly, I'm a little sour on Sgt. Mark's judgement after the real gore debacle. To me, it's important to understand the distinction between stylised ultraviolence and actual real world violence, and he kind of showed his hand on that one. No one wants to think this thing they enjoy is being worked on by the author for the wrong reasons. Has anyone else tried the MAP13 remake he made for use with Brutal Doom? I got it off his 4shared. It's pretty nicely made for a "realistic" map, good luck dealing with the three revenants and cyberdemon in the big plaza though.

I figured I'd share this here as I think it's a fun exercise for anyone who's interested in Doom mapping: Mapping By Music It's a simple enough idea: take a song and build a level around it. Sure, the challenge part is on another forum, but I still think it's a worthwhile concept.

So, you like Doom? You like Blood? You like shooting Nazi's? Well, guess what I found... Yes, it's corny as hell, but it's a pretty massive WAD and actually plays rather well! EDIT: Holy poo poo, just reached the level "Eredication". Fighting a literally never-ending army of enemies from Blood, Doom, and Wolfenstein while the best song from the whole TimeSplitters series plays in the background is loving insane!

So yeah, in the new version of Brutal Doom your Beserker-punches are swung as fast as you can mash the fire key. Thanks to this the past few levels of Community Chest 3 have been converted into some kind of Fist of the North Star film, with skulls being caved in, torsos turned into clouds of goo, and so, so many zombiemen being kicked off of high platforms. I think SgtMarkIV is about two updates away from making Brutal Doom into a full-fledged beat-em-up, at this rate.
